Make me like a little child, Simple, teachable, and mild; Seeing only in Thy light; Walking only in Thy might!

A Christian never falls asleep in the fire or in the water, but grows drowsy in the sunshine.

The Bible is a precious storehouse, and the Magna Charta of a Christian. There he reads of his Heavenly Father's love, and of his dying Saviour's legacies. There he sees a map of his travels through the wilderness, and a landscape, too, of Canaan.

All decays begin in the closet; no heart thrives with out much secret converse with God, and nothing will make amends for the want of it.

Avoid all controversy in preaching, talking, or writing; preach nothing down but the devil, and nothing up but Jesus Christ.

Make me like a little child, Simple, teachable, and mild; Seeing only in Thy light; Walking only in Thy might!
